AnswerClick to flip back
A
report
💡 Explanation:
Option B: A report is 'a spoken or written account of something that one has observed or investigated'.
The given sentence mentions 'a brief account of an event that has already taken place'.
Hence the answer is 'report' and option B is correct.
Option A: An article is 'a piece of writing written for a large audience. The main motive behind writing one is to publish in newspapers and magazines so as to educate the readers.' It can be as short as one page or several pages long.
Option C: An autobiography is 'an account of the life story of the author'.
Option D: A diary entry is 'a personal journal that one writes on a daily basis, to express their thoughts, feelings and experiences.
These are not the correct options as they serve other purposes of writing.
Hence options A, C and D are wrong.
